Intelligence is an umbrella term describing a property of the mind comprehending related abilities, such as the capacities for abstract thought, reasoning, planning and problem solving, the use of language, and to learn. Intelligence is variously defined; it includes intellectual traits such as creativity, personality, character, knowledge, and wisdom.

Theories of intelligence are two-fold: (i) the “single intelligence” based upon the unilinear construct of “general intelligence”, and (ii) the construct of multiple intelligences. Influenced by his cousin Charles Darwin, Francis Galton was the first scientist to propose a theory of general intelligence; that intelligence is a true, biologically-based mental faculty that can be studied by measuring a person’s reaction times to cognitive tasks. Galton’s research in measuring the head sizes of British scientists and laymen led to the conclusion that head-size is unrelated to a person’s intelligence.

Alfred Binet, and the French school of intelligence, believed intelligence was a median average of dissimilar abilities, not a unitary entity with specific, identifiable properties. Therefore, theorists of general intelligence and of multiple intelligence, use the Stanford-Binet test in measuring intelligence.

What are some good characteristics of a intelligence test?
Q. I am doing some research for a school project and I am so lost. I have to answer these questions What is intelligence? Compare the early and contemporary theories of intelligence and I need to give examples of how to measure intelligence. Any help would be grately appreciated.

A. There are no good characteristics of an intelligence test, because there are no good intelligence tests. There are good tests of information that people know, but that's not intelligence, and there are tests (of extremely varying quality) of different psychological factors, in both absolute and relative terms. The real problem is that intelligence is not defined very well, in the literature or in the public consciousness. IQ is not really a measure of intelligence, partly because it really measures things like knowledge and maturity, and partly because, as stated, there is no good definition of intelligence. IQ is not intelligence, although it deceptively contains the word. A good intelligence test would provide equivalent evaluation for… [cont.]

How to define intelligence and common sense and relate them with other things?
Q. My personal opinion is that real intelligence is that is used to simplify the things rather complicating them due to personal insecurities. It is going for the best rather than preparing for the worst. It has little to do with I.Q. and probably a bit to do with entropy and stability. Evolutionary sciences tell us that other species are fitter to survive than humans in fact we should not copy them but be at our best.
